1.) does it need to be able to build sles11 packages, or it is not a requirement to be able to sr it to factory?
Factory and SLE 11 are different products, and while it is desirable to get it running on it, the only requirement is getting it running in Factory.
2.) could anyone with access to SLES 11 SP1 check, why this happens?
This happends due to an "unfortunate" (read crazy) requirement: we have to support /usr in a remote system. so all stuff that gets installed in /bin /sbin must not be linked to stuff in /usr as it may not be available.
For example, joe does not work. Which means that joe does not work in rescue mode when a partition failed to mount, which means using vi (which also complains about some missing part). Now you say: learn vi. Ok, I know some vi; just you try to use vi in a Spanish keyboard with a running default, ie, US, keyboard, Where is the colon ":". And the exclamation mark "!"? All this because a small error in fstab that you have to correct to boot. Now, why use /usr at all. Me, because it supposed to work, and because it is a method to add space to a filesystem. It is quite typical on some installations to have everything on its own partition. - -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R.
